The word "coaxing" itself has an uncertain etymology. It is believed to have originated from the Old French word "caucier", meaning "to cajole, flatter, or deceive". The exact origin of "caucier" is unclear, but some suggest it may have been influenced by the Latin word "coaxare", meaning "to wheedle" or "to coax".
The phrase "more coaxing" is formed by adding the word "more" before "coaxing". "More" is derived from the Old English word "māra" and shares roots with the Proto-Germanic word "maizon", meaning "greater" or "more". When combined, "more coaxing" simply refers to the act of coaxing someone or something further or to a higher degree.
